Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman

Look at the way she wiggles her fingers when she's happy.

Isn't she beautiful?

How many times have I said that today?

Only four.

- Only, thing is you're right. - Mmm.

Ma, you're gonna be late for work.

I really appreciate you taking care of Katie

this morning, Colleen.

Oh, I'm happy to do it.

I'll go get the horses.

Oh, I've been planning this for weeks.

Everything's gonna be fine.

The town will be so happy to have you back.

Perhaps I should take her with me to the clinic this morning.

It's better to give yourself the morning to settle in.

I'll come by in time for you to nurse.

Hmm? Hmm? Hmm?

Bye, mommy.

Oh!

- Bye! - Bye. I love you.

Oh, Brian.

Again?

Come on.

It's been a while since you've been on a horse.

Wanna take it easy?

Go slow?

Ya! Come on!

- Ya! - Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

- Come on! - Come on!

Ha!

Come on! Ya!

Ha! Ya!

- Come on! Ya! - Ya! Hey!

Come on, Flash. Come on!

Ya!

I won! I won!

You cheated.

Oughta arrest you two for disturbin' the peace.

- Mornin'. - Mornin', Robert E.

Horace was lookin' for you earlier, Sully.

This just come for you.

It's from General Wooden.

About Cloud Dancing?

Has he agreed to send him back here?

Doesn't say.

Just says he'll meet me for five minutes tomorrow afternoon

at Denver Train Station.

Well, he wouldn't even see you before.

- This is a good sign. - Sounds like those letters

you wrote to Washington done some good.

I'll take the train in the mornin'.

Sully, I could sure use your help.

I gotta ride out to the Widow Flanders.

Some thieves rode in and stole some of her horses last night.

- Is she all right? - She's fine.

But they tore up her fence pretty good.

I told her I'd patch it up.

All right. Let's go.

Promise me you won't overdo it on your first day back,

let Andrew help you out?

I promise.

Come on.

Michaela!

Oh, there you are.

Your first day back. Now don't be nervous.

Andrew's been doin' a real good job.

It's good to have you back.

He tripped and fell in the store.

How could this have happened?

And it's not even raining!

Surprise!

Gotcha!

Wonderful to have you back, Dr. Mike.

Mind ya, I'm sure Andrew here coulda

performed an umbrella-ectomy without your assistance.

- Welcome back. - Thank you.

Ain't he just the greatest?

Come on. Come on.

- Come on, fellas. - Welcome back, Dr. Mike.

Hope we didn't scare you too bad.

Bye.

Well, I guess I'd like

to start by checking up on my patients' health.

Oh, I-I thought you might want to.

I organized these records for you.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Please.

Well, everything certainly seems to be in order.

It's very impressive.

Uh, I had to perform an appendectomy on Mr. Frobush.

Emily Grange's stomach seems to be getting worse.

It's good to have you back, Dr. Quinn.

Thank you...

Dr. Cook.

Mrs. Green's hip is improving.

Anthony's condition seems to be stable,

as is Orson's gallbladder.

Loren, post this for me?

Railroad's offerin' a reward for information

about a gang that's been robbin' the train.

Oh, hang the train.

What're you gonna do 'bout my window?

Anythin' missin'?

No, but that ain't the point.

It's terrible.

Seems like nearly every day

some stranger's takin' off without payin' for his meal.

Yeah, and some more of my horseshoes

were taken last night from the livery.

Gettin' so you don't feel safe anywhere.

Thanks, Loren.

Take care of your Ma while I'm gone.

You're only going overnight.

It's hard to leave these days.

All aboard!

Oh, bye-bye, Katie.

Good luck with General Wooden.

Bye-bye.

What do you mean you ain't sent my telegram?

The deadline for me and Hank's loan application is tomorrow.

I must have forgot it.

You want Preston to have the only hotel in this town?

I'll send it now.

Look, I'm sorry I barked at you,

but I've got to get that application out.

Did you get another letter from Myra?

It's been three months since she left.

You gotta face facts... she ain't comin' back.

Horace.

I know how much you must miss Myra and Samantha.

I don't wanna talk about it now.

I guess Katie will be starting her medical training early.

Thank you, Andrew.

I burnt myself on the forge.

It ain't bad.

Well, let me take a look at ya.

I-I'm sorry, Robert E.

Could you mind waiting just for a few minutes?

Uh, there's no need. I-I could take care of this.

Thank you, Dr. Cook.

General Wooden?

I'm Agent Sully.

Former Agent Sully.

I don't know how you did it,

but you've got Washington breathing down my neck.

And that is a feeling that I am unaccustomed to,

and I want it stopped.

What's it going to take?

One man... Cloud Dancing.

How predictable.

Done.

And get rid of O'Connor.

Well, now that he has things under control at Palmer Creek,

he'll be more useful elsewhere.

But in return, you'll agree

to never again involve yourself with Indian affairs.

No interfering with the new agent at Palmer Creek

or any Indian business anywhere.

No letters, no telegrams.

If I even hear the whisper of your name,

I will transfer your Indian friend

where you'll never find him.

All right.

I'll have him here on the troop train,

9:00 tomorrow morning.

Be here to sign for him.

Loren, are you all right?

Well, it's... it's just that...

Oh, I'm... I'm fine. Everything's all right.

May I join you, Horace?

You're looking tired.

I haven't been sleepin' so good.

Have you tried chamomile tea? That sometimes helps me.

When I'm not getting enough sleep,

whatever problems I have often seem worse.

I, uh, was lookin' for you at the clinic.

This come last night.

Good news, Michaela?

Sully's coming back today with Cloud Dancing.

Oh, that's wonderful!

It... it just goes to show how...

how important Horace is to all of us,

deliverin' news like that accurately.

We wouldn't know what to do without him.

We... we were thinkin' we should have

an end-of-the-summer picnic up by Spencer Lake, maybe?

Well, that would be a good opportunity for everyone

to visit and, uh, welcome Cloud Dancing back.

Yes, we could fish and swim and have games for the children.

I'm sorry.

Horace, I didn't mean to...

I-I just want you to...

It's all right.

Horace, a chandelier I purchased

is being shipped here on today's train.

Now, I need to advise whoever handles baggage in Denver

- of its fragility. - They'll take care of it.

It took a great deal of time and expense to locate
